Christmas nails, 5th of December

Christmas nails, 5th of December

We are now five days into my Christmas calendar of manicures. Today I decided to make some ugly sweater-nails. I honestly don’t find Christmas sweaters ugly, but I know that many people do. I love all the Christmas sweaters I’ve got :D     

Here they are, today’s ugly sweater nails:

Nail Pattern Boldness “Tourmaline”, Christmas Nails

The base colour is Nail Pattern Boldness “Tourmaline”, which was originally a store exclusive for Edgy Polish back in the days. I believe I bought my bottle in 2016. I am wearing three coats, which is what is necessary to achieve desired opacity. The drying time is pretty good.

The stamp is from the stamping plate “BPL-032” and I stamped with a white stamping polish.

I topped it all with Topshelf Lacquer’s holo glitter topper “It’s Not What You Drink”.

Here’s a bonus picture of “Tourmaline”. Three coats and no topcoat. And it stains too, badly! :D

Here are all the things I used today.

Nail Pattern Boldness: Brom Bones

Purple linear holo

Here comes a polish that I've had for a while. It's super pretty and the rainbows in it are mesmerizing. The formula is good so is the coverage. It took two coats to achieve desired opacity. The drying time is good.

I didn't want to cover up too much of this beauty so I ended up making five neon pink dots on each nail, shaping a moon manicure. The pink is an old Color Club. It has lost its label, but I think it's "Warhol".

Here's the final manicure, including a layer of topcoat. The photo is taken with flash because the sun wasn't cooperative :D

Here's the same thing in daylight, no sun. The colour is so beautiful!

This is "Brom Bones" alone, two coats and no topcoat yet. The photo is taken with flash.
